Removal

 PERFORMANCE ORDER

  1. Deactivate SRS (see the Head Elektrooborudovaniye).
  2. Bring forward wheels of the car into rectilinear situation.
  3. Remove a steering wheel (see Removal and installation of a steering wheel).
  4. By means of a center punch mark adjusting position of the U-shaped cardan hinge.
  5. Turn out the lower coupling bolt of hinged assembly.
  6. Remove the top and lower sections of a casing of a steering column.
  7. Remove a cable of blocking of switching of AT (see the Head the Transmission line).
  8. Remove a cable of the indicator of provision of AT.
  9. Disconnect an electrical wiring of understeering switches, the lock of ignition and the spiral cable reel.
  10. Remove assembly of the combined switch (see Removal and installation of assembly of the combined understeering switches).
  11. Remove the left lower section of finishing of the dashboard.
  12. Turn out bolts of the lower basic arm of a column and bolts of fastening of the boot / panel of a floor.
  13. Turn out bolts of fastening of the top basic arm of a column.
  14. Remove a column, having accurately involved it in interior of the car.


Check

 PERFORMANCE ORDER

  1. If violation of smoothness of rotation of a steering wheel took place, estimate degree of wear of bearings of a steering column.
  2. Check existence in lubricant bearings.
  3. Examine a column case sleeve on existence of deformations and other mechanical damages.
  1. If the car had an accident, measure geometrical parameters of a column and the top hinge.

    A — the Test sizes of a steering column and top cardan the hinge

    L 1 — Length of the top shaft of a steering column
    L 2 — Length of the lower shaft of a steering column

    B — the Test size of the top cardan hinge of a steering column

A.

B.

The top hinge is located between reducing assembly of the steering drive and the lower shaft of a steering column.

  1. If results of measurements exceed the limit of admissible ranges (see Specifications), replace a column assembled.
  1. Check the adjusting sizes of the driving mechanism of adjustment of an inclination of a column. Compare results of measurements to requirements of Specifications, in case of need make replacement of a column.


Installation

 PERFORMANCE ORDER

  1. Make sure that forward wheels of the car still are in rectilinear situation.
